ArmandoSalguero Dolphins haven't been told they are out of Manning sweepstakes. They thought they had a good meet and continue to think they have a shot.
Mando: Phins have not been told they're out of Manning, still think they have a shot

Armando has been shockingly positive during this ordeal!

Funny it's like all of Omar's followers went crying to Armando asking please let that not be true, so Armando makes this tweet.

Because getting in a bidding war for the second coming of Kolb is better for the future of this franchise?
What exactly do Kolb and Flynn have in common other than they were back ups on their previous teams???
You trust philbin to go haul in Manning but dont trust him to make a decision on Flynn? if the phins dont make a strong effort to go after Philbin that should speak volumes to other teams. I will trust his assesment. If he gets shot down by Ross on this. He should have turned the job down. Manning tip towning around the dolphins front office should be a concern as well.

I rather have Kolb honestly.
Glad your not the GM.
First of all I trust Philbin's acumen for QBs over yours. If he thinks Matt Flynn is the answer, I'm on board. And second of all I wasn't even referencing Flynn or any other QB. I'm talking about all free agents...realistically we have enough cap space to sign Manning and that's it, If we sign Manning our free agency signing period is over. I'm more interested in going after Eric Winston to be our RT and possibly a WR to go opposite Marshall but I'd be happy with just Winston.

Free agency doesn't start until 4 pm, so he's pursuing the only currently available qb option. What should he be doing differently?
I'm getting pretty sick of the Ross-bashing - it's created a perception within the league that's not really deserved.
He went after 2 top coaching candidates in Harbaugh and Fisher. Now he's pursuing a HOF qb, the only available qb right now, and somehow, he's an idiot? Personally, I don't care that Sparano was employed while he pitched Harbaugh - who cares? That's business. I don't see anybody outraged that we're pursuing qb's while Matt Moore is still employed.
So he tried to add some sizzle to the game experience with celebrities and orange carpet stuff - who cares? It was extra-curricular to the football being played- it had no effect, positive or negative, on the quality of the team, player personnel, etc. And let's face it, if were 12-4 and deep in the playoffs, it would be a pretty cool atmosphere, like Laker games, and even the Heat lately.
I like that I have an owner that is actively pursuing the best (perceived) available talent- he just needs to land one! But the fans of his own team perpetuating the negative reputation doesn't help. I'm not saying he's awesome, I just don't think he's done much to warrant the negativity that gets heaped on him.

Ugh.....NO ONE knows ****! Schefter/Mortenson/Lombardi/Mando/Omar/Lacanfora and the rest of the talking heads have been made to look utterly unreliable and quite frankly desperate.
